Mod 6 completed Periodic Necklaces.

Mods 3 and 7 completed The Last Straw

       Students had to create a 3D model of the periodic table to illustrate periodic trends with atomic
       radius.

e-harmony: Students wore periodic necklaces featuring an element symbol with a charge.  Based on the charge, students had to find their "soulmate".

Also, we completed the Ion Bead Lab: Students had to determine the charge based on the number of protons and electrons in the sample.  See below.
